[MCR] Glacier Park Conditions - August 31

Snowline down to 8000 ft / 2400 m in Glacier Park and the Revelstoke area this
morning (August 31st). Seems to be less snow than guides are reporting seeing
in the Rockies, estimating 5-10 cm.

With a clear and warm weather forecast through the weekend, Tupper and Uto
should dry out enough to climb. Sir Donald may dry out enough as well, but if
not, the SW ridge on Uto is a worthwhile alternative.
